Primus et Ultimus

Welcome, to Primus et Ultimus. In this clan, we strive to be the best we can be. That doesn't go to say, however, that we require our members to be masterful in the art of battling. Anyone and everyone is welcome to join our clan, so long as you obey the rules.

Spoiler:- Rules:

Obey all SPPF rules.

Respect the Duplicarii (the leaders).

If there is a problem, report it to the Duplicarii.

Use your common sense.

Treat ALL other Serebii members with respect, and do not do anything that could get you banned. We do not want anyone causing us to have a bad reputation.

Give credit to Callie for her userbars. She worked hard on them, she deserves due credit.

Spoiler:- Organization:

Our clan is organized into four regions, based on the four capitals of the Roman Empire (no, we aren't an empire, just based on one). Each capital has its own mascot type, based on the four elements (as thought by Roman philosophers): Fire, Water, Wind (Flying), and Earth (Ground). You do NOT have to have a Pokemon of your capital's type. Anyway, here are the four capitals:
1) The Ignis Capital, Rome-Fire Type
2) The Terra Capital, Constantinople-Ground Type
3) The Aqua Capital, Ravenna-Water Type
4) The Ventus Capital, Mediolanum-Flying Type

Spoiler:- Leaders:

As stated, our leaders are called the Duplicarii (Duplicarius singular). These were high ranking officials in the Roman military. The current Duplicarii are:
Ignis--MooseSmuggler
Terra--Pkmnswampmaster
Aqua--Darkai'sShadow
Ventus--ScubaSteve23

Retired:
Bobby's Pants (Ventus)

Spoiler:- Ranks:

As our leaders' names are based on Roman military terms, so are our ranks. Your listed rank is your "military" rank followed by your capital. The ranks are:

Rank 1--Foederati (0 Den)

Rank 2--Velites (150 Den)

Rank 3--Hastati (350 Den)

Rank 4--Eqites (700 Den)

Rank 5--Cataphractarii (1100 Den)

Spoiler:- Denarii:

To rank up, you must earn Denarii. Unlike normal currency, you cannot spend or lose Denarii. Upon getting a set amount, you will get a chance to rank up. To earn Denarii, you must win battles, do art for the clan, or do some other various activities. The entire list of activities is under development, but for now, you can earn Denarii by:

Winning a battle (your opponent's rank x5) (Vexillarii count as rank five) (Duplicarii are worth 30, but only the first attempt against a given Duplicarius on a given day may count)

Making something for the clan (max 50 Den)

Writing an analysis for the Vulcan Cup (max 50 Den)

Tutoring another member as an official tutor (max 50 Den)

Winning a war battle (20 Den)

Breeding Pokemon as an arsenal breeder (max 30 Den)

Referring a member to this clan (5 Den)

If you have won a battle, post this form:

Code:

My opponent:
Their rank:
Score:
Denarii earned:

As a final reminder, you are responsible for tracking your Denarii. Duplicarii are not required to post it, and are not expected to track it for you.

Spoiler:- War Team:

Our war team is called the Fruhmentarii (Roman secret police). In a given war, the Duplicarius rotates (from me to Swamp to Dark to Bobby then back), and each Duplicarius chooses one Fruhmentarius from their capital to represent them. If the war is 7v7, the previous war's leader and one additional battler from the current leader's capital will join. Our current members are:

Okay, I won't keep you waiting any more. Here's the form you must fill out to join this clan:

Code:

Username:PO Name(s):Friend Code (include versions):Which Capital would you like to join?:What are you willing to do for this clan? (Art, Vulcan Cup, breeding, etc.):Are you planning to attempt to join the war team?:Did anyone refer you to this clan?:

Spoiler:- Strikes:

Simple enough, you break the rules, you get a strike. Before giving you a strike, you will be warned the first time you break a specific rule. The current strike list is: Spoiler:- Strikes List:

None to date, KEEP IT THAT WAY

Spoiler:- Shops:

Our members run various shops on Serebii and on our clan forum. For information on where our shops are or to start your own, PM a Duplicarius.

Spoiler:- Vulcan Cup:

The Vulcan Cup is a custom tier invented by MooseSmuggler. This tier is played with level 30 Pokemon, with some restrictions. Ask a leader for more info.

Spoiler:- Jobs:

There are many jobs you can do for this clan, and for Denarii. They include tutoring, being on the war team, art, breeding, and doing analysis work for the Vulcan Cup. To do some of these jobs, however, you need to fill out an application, or your work may not get you Denarii.

Here are the applications:

Praeceptor (Tutor) (PM MooseSmuggler):

Code:

I want to be a Praeceptor, Moose!
Name:
Battling Specialty:
Timezone:
Experience (tournaments, rankings, etc.) that shows I can do this:

Other information:
